Description

本発明は、カップホルダなどの小物入れ(小物ケース)をシートクッション座面などに設ける車両用シートのための小物入れ構造および車両用シートへの小物入れ取付け方法に関する。   The present invention relates to an accessory case structure for a vehicle seat in which an accessory case (accessory case) such as a cup holder is provided on a seat cushion seat surface and the like, and a method for attaching the accessory case to the vehicle seat.

シートクッションの座面(上面)にカップホルダなどの小物入れ(小物ケース)を設けて、ドリンク、ガム、ペン、ティッシュなどの小物を収納可能とした車両用シートが知られている。
この種の車両シートにおいては、シートクッションの前端角部などでシートパッドに凹所を形成し、この凹所に樹脂などからなるカップホルダを埋設して小物を収納する小物入れとしている。また、布よりなる袋状のポケットをシートパッドの凹所に被せて小物入れとした構成も知られているが、この構成ではドリンクなどの安定した収納が難しく、シートパッドの凹所に樹脂の小物入れを埋設した構成が広く採用されている。
2. Description of the Related Art A vehicular seat is known in which an accessory case (accessory case) such as a cup holder is provided on a seat cushion (upper surface) of a seat cushion so that accessories such as drinks, gums, pens, and tissues can be stored.
In this type of vehicle seat, a recess is formed in the seat pad at the front corner of the seat cushion and the like, and a cup holder made of resin or the like is embedded in the recess so as to store an accessory. In addition, there is also known a configuration in which a bag-like pocket made of cloth is put on the recess of the seat pad to store accessories, but with this configuration it is difficult to stably store drinks etc., and resin in the recess of the seat pad is difficult. A configuration in which an accessory case is embedded is widely adopted.

小物入れ(カップホルダ)は、一般的に、PP(ポリプロピレン)などの樹脂から凹所の形状に対応しその上端開口の周縁にフランジ(外フランジ、鍔状フランジ)を持つケース形状に成形される。トリムカバー(表皮)は凹所を除いてシートパッドを被覆し、凹所に面したトリムカバーの端末は、樹脂からなる小物入れのフランジと、発泡成形材からなるシートパッドとの間に挟持されて処理される。   An accessory case (cup holder) is generally molded from a resin such as PP (polypropylene) into a case shape corresponding to the shape of the recess and having a flange (outer flange, bowl-shaped flange) at the periphery of its upper end opening. . The trim cover (skin) covers the seat pad except for the recess, and the end of the trim cover that faces the recess is sandwiched between the flange of the small container made of resin and the seat pad made of foam molding material. Processed.

トリムカバーの端末を小物入れのフランジ、シートパッド間に挟持して処理する構成では、シートクッション座面が撓むと、小物入れの開口部において小物入れとトリムカバーの端末との間に隙間が生じるおそれがある。小物入れ、トリムカバーの端末の間に隙間が生じると、ドリンク、ガム、ペン、ティッシュなどの小物を小物入れに出し入れするとき、その隙間に指を差し込むことがあるため、ガードを設けるなどの指入れ防止の対策を設ける必要がある。   In the configuration in which the end of the trim cover is sandwiched between the flange and the seat pad of the accessory case and the seat cushion seat surface is bent, a gap is formed between the accessory case and the end of the trim cover at the opening of the accessory case. There is a fear. If there is a gap between the terminal of the accessory case and the trim cover, a finger may be inserted into the accessory case when a small item such as a drink, gum, pen, or tissue is taken in or out of the accessory case. It is necessary to take measures to prevent insertion.

たとえば、凹所の周縁でシートパッドを他の部分より硬質に成形し、小物入れの底部をシートクッション下面のシートフレームにピン止めして下方への押力をフランジに発生させ、この押力のもとでトリムカバーの端末をシートパッドの硬質部に押し付けて挟持する構成が知られている(たとえば、特開2006−061536号公報)。   For example, the seat pad is made harder than the other parts at the periphery of the recess, and the bottom of the accessory case is pinned to the seat frame on the lower surface of the seat cushion to generate a downward pressing force on the flange. A configuration is known in which the end of the trim cover is pressed against a hard portion of a seat pad (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-061536).

また、一部を切り欠いてトリムワイヤに巻装した袋状にトリムカバーの端末を縫合し、一対のフック片からなる引掛け片を小物入れのフランジの下面に形成してトリムカバーの袋状の端末の切欠き部でトリムワイヤに係止させて、小物入れのフランジとトリムカバーの袋状の端末とがトリムワイヤを介在して一体化された構成も知られている(たとえば、特開平09−309370号公報)。   Also, the end of the trim cover is sewn into a bag shape that is partly cut out and wrapped around the trim wire, and a hooking piece made up of a pair of hook pieces is formed on the lower surface of the flange of the accessory case to form the bag shape of the trim cover. There is also known a configuration in which a flange of an accessory case and a bag-shaped end of a trim cover are integrated with a trim wire by being engaged with a trim wire at a notch portion of the terminal (for example, JP 09-309370 A). Issue gazette).

特開2006−061536号公報JP 2006-061536 A 特開平09−309370号公報JP 09-309370 A

特開2006−061536号公報記載の構成では、シートパッドが硬質に成形されているため、トリムカバーの端末をシートパッドに強く押し付けてシートパッド、小物入れのフランジ間で挟持して、トリムカバーの端末が処理され、小物入れとトリムカバーの端末との間での隙間の発生を防止できる。しかし、凹所の周縁でシートパッドを他の部分より硬質に成形しても、シートパッドが発泡成形材から成形されていることに変わりはない。そのため、大きな圧縮力が凹所の回りでシートパッドに加われば、シートパッドの硬質部の圧縮、変形が避けられず、トリムカバーの端末の挟持が緩んで小物入れとトリムカバーの端末との間で隙間が発生するおそれがあり、隙間の発生を十分に防止できない。そのため、現実的な対応として、隙間への指の差し込みを防ぐ対策が欠かせず、その対策として隙間への指の差し込みを防ぐガードを設ければ、外観品質が損なわれる。   In the configuration described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-061536, since the seat pad is rigidly formed, the end of the trim cover is strongly pressed against the seat pad and is sandwiched between the seat pad and the flange of the accessory case. The terminal is processed, and the generation of a gap between the accessory case and the terminal of the trim cover can be prevented. However, even if the seat pad is molded harder than other parts at the periphery of the recess, the seat pad is still molded from the foam molding material. Therefore, if a large compressive force is applied to the seat pad around the recess, compression and deformation of the hard part of the seat pad is inevitable, and the grip of the trim cover terminal is loosened and the space between the accessory case and the end of the trim cover In such a case, a gap may occur, and the generation of the gap cannot be sufficiently prevented. Therefore, as a practical measure, a measure for preventing the insertion of the finger into the gap is indispensable. If a guard for preventing the insertion of the finger into the gap is provided as the measure, the appearance quality is impaired.

特開平09−309370号公報では、小物入れのフランジとトリムカバーの袋状の端末とがトリムワイヤを介在して一体化されることによって、トリムカバーの端末が処理されている。この小物入れ、トリムカバーの端末の一体化でトリムカバーの端末を処理する構成では、トリムカバーの端末は弾性変形可能なシートパッド、小物入れのフランジ間に挟持されていないため、シートパッドの圧縮、変形と無関係となり、大きな圧縮力が凹所の回りでシートパッドに加わっても、小物入れとトリムカバーの端末との間に隙間が生じるおそれがなく、隙間への指入れに対する対策が不要となる。
また、トリムワイヤに巻装されて袋状に縫合されてトリムカバーの端末は待機しており、シートパッドの凹所に小物入れを納めて、そのフランジの引掛け片をトリムワイヤに係止させるだけで小物入れがシートクッションの座面(上面)などに取り付けられ、小物入れの取り付けが容易に行える。
In Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 09-309370, the trim cover terminal is processed by integrating the flange of the accessory case and the bag-shaped end of the trim cover with a trim wire interposed therebetween. In the configuration in which the terminal of the trim cover is processed by integrating the accessory case and the terminal of the trim cover, the trim cover end is not sandwiched between the elastically deformable seat pad and the flange of the accessory case. Because it becomes irrelevant to deformation, even if a large compressive force is applied to the seat pad around the recess, there is no possibility of a gap between the accessory case and the end of the trim cover, and there is no need to take measures against finger insertion into the gap Become.
In addition, the end of the trim cover is awaited by being wound around the trim wire and stitched in a bag shape. Just put the accessory case in the recess of the seat pad and lock the hook of the flange to the trim wire. The accessory case is attached to the seat cushion's seat surface (upper surface), and the accessory case can be easily attached.

しかしながら、一部の切り欠かれたトリムカバーの端末がトリムワイヤに巻装されて袋状に縫合されており、縫合工程が煩雑で時間を要するため、トリムカバーの端末処理が容易に行えない。   However, the trim cover terminal is not easily performed because a part of the trim cover terminal is wound around the trim wire and sewn into a bag shape, and the sewing process is complicated and time-consuming.

小物入れの本体16b、蓋体16cは、いずれも軟質素材から成形され、後述するように、本発明では周縁壁16c1の一部(周縁壁から延びた係止片の一部)を溶融して周縁壁を本体のフランジ16b1に溶着、係止するため、蓋体は溶融可能で軟質の素材、たとえば、エラストマー、軟質樹脂などから成形される。通常、本体16b、蓋体16cは同一素材から成形されており、蓋体と同様に本体もエラストマー、軟質樹脂などの軟質素材から成形されるが、本体を蓋体と別の軟質素材から成形してもよい。   The accessory case main body 16b and the lid body 16c are both made of a soft material. As will be described later, in the present invention, a part of the peripheral wall 16c1 (part of the locking piece extending from the peripheral wall) is melted. In order to weld and lock the peripheral wall to the flange 16b1 of the main body, the lid body is made of a meltable and soft material such as an elastomer or a soft resin. Normally, the main body 16b and the lid body 16c are molded from the same material. Like the lid body, the main body is molded from a soft material such as an elastomer or a soft resin, but the main body is molded from a soft material different from the lid body. May be.

図2に加えて図3を見るとよくわかるように、蓋体16cは、小物の出入り口となる切欠き16c2’の形成された天井面16c2を持ち、本体の側壁16b2はフランジ16b1を越えて延びて、蓋体が本体に被せられて組み込まれたとき、蓋体の天井面の背後に位置する。また、環状の縁部16b1’がフランジ16b1の外縁に形成され、この縁部は蓋体の周縁壁16c1との間に段差を生じない程度に蓋体の周縁壁とほぼ同一の高さまで周縁壁の外方で上方に延びている。たとえば、縁部16b1’は、トリムカバーの厚さ相当分を加えると蓋体の周縁壁16c1とほぼ同一となる高さに形成される。   As can be seen from FIG. 3 in addition to FIG. 2, the lid 16c has a ceiling surface 16c2 formed with a notch 16c2 'serving as an entrance for small items, and the side wall 16b2 of the main body extends beyond the flange 16b1. When the lid is put on the main body and incorporated, the lid is located behind the ceiling surface of the lid. An annular edge 16b1 'is formed on the outer edge of the flange 16b1, and this edge is a peripheral wall up to the same height as the peripheral wall of the lid so as not to cause a step with the peripheral wall 16c1 of the lid. It extends upward outside. For example, the edge portion 16b1 'is formed to have a height that is substantially the same as the peripheral wall 16c1 of the lid when the thickness equivalent of the trim cover is added.

また、本体のフランジの縁部16b1’は、蓋体16cが本体16bに組み込まれたとき、蓋体の周縁壁16c1の外面との間に僅かな隙間を残して位置するように形成されている。たとえば、その上端においてはトリムカバーの端末12c’の厚さ(トリムカバーの厚さ)より僅かに大きく、下端においては僅かに小さい程度の僅かな隙間を蓋体の周縁壁の外面との間に残す程度に周縁壁16c1の外方に隣接して、フランジの縁部16b1’は形成される。   Further, the edge 16b1 ′ of the flange of the main body is formed so as to be located with a slight gap between the lid 16c and the outer surface of the peripheral wall 16c1 when the lid 16c is incorporated into the main body 16b. . For example, a slight gap that is slightly larger than the thickness of the trim cover terminal 12c ′ at the upper end (thickness of the trim cover) and slightly smaller at the lower end is provided between the outer surface of the peripheral wall of the lid. The flange edge 16b1 ′ is formed adjacent to the outside of the peripheral wall 16c1 to the extent that it remains.

図4は、トリムカバーの端末を挟み込む前における小物入れの一部破断の分解斜視図を示し、図3、図4からわかるように、一連のスリットS1がシートパッドの凹所12p1(図2参照)に面して位置することとなるトリムカバーの端末12c’に形成されるとともに、一連のスリットS2が小物入れの本体のフランジ16b1に形成されている。トリムカバーの端末12c’のスリットS1、本体のフランジ16b1のスリットS2は同一形状で、たとえば、細長い矩形形状(短冊形状)とされる。   FIG. 4 shows an exploded perspective view of a partial break of the accessory case before the end of the trim cover is sandwiched, and as can be seen from FIGS. 3 and 4, a series of slits S1 are formed in the seat pad recess 12p1 (see FIG. 2). ), And a series of slits S2 are formed in the flange 16b1 of the main body of the accessory case. The slit S1 of the terminal 12c 'of the trim cover and the slit S2 of the flange 16b1 of the main body have the same shape, for example, an elongated rectangular shape (strip shape).

また、一連の係止片16d1が、蓋体の周縁壁16c1の下端から段部16dを残して延出している。ここで、蓋体16c、トリムカバーの端末12c’、本体のフランジ16b1に形成された一連の係止片16d1、スリットS1、S2のそれぞれは、対応する整列位置に設けられ、係止片は、スリットS1、S2を挿通可能にスリットS1、S2より僅かに小さな対応した矩形断面に形成されている。   Further, a series of locking pieces 16d1 extend from the lower end of the peripheral wall 16c1 of the lid body, leaving the stepped portion 16d. Here, the lid 16c, the terminal 12c ′ of the trim cover, the series of locking pieces 16d1 formed on the flange 16b1 of the main body, and the slits S1 and S2 are respectively provided at corresponding alignment positions. The slits S1 and S2 are formed to have a corresponding rectangular cross section slightly smaller than the slits S1 and S2 so that the slits S1 and S2 can be inserted.

図5は、トリムカバーの端末を挟み込んで蓋体を本体に被せて組み立てられた小物入れの斜視図、図6(A)(B)は係止片をフランジに溶着、係止する前後での図5の線B−Bに沿った部分断面図をそれぞれ示す。
図4、図6(A)からわかるように、蓋体の周縁壁16c1の下端から段部16dを残して下方に延びた係止片16d1は、まず、トリムカバーの端末のスリットS1に挿通され、それから、スリットS1の形成されているトリムカバーの端末12c’を蓋体の周縁壁16c1と本体のフランジの縁部16b1’と隙間に引き込んで挟み込みながら、本体のフランジのスリットS2に挿通される。
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of an accessory case assembled with the end of the trim cover sandwiched between the lid and the main body, and FIGS. 6A and 6B are views before and after the locking piece is welded and locked to the flange. FIG. 6 shows partial cross-sectional views along line BB in FIG.
As can be seen from FIGS. 4 and 6A, the locking piece 16d1 extending downward from the lower end of the peripheral wall 16c1 of the lid leaving the step portion 16d is first inserted into the slit S1 of the end of the trim cover. Then, the terminal 12c ′ of the trim cover in which the slit S1 is formed is inserted into the slit S2 of the flange of the main body while being drawn and sandwiched between the peripheral wall 16c1 of the lid and the edge 16b1 ′ of the flange of the main body. .

係止片16d1が、本体のフランジのスリットS2に挿通されると、スリットS2から突き出た係止片の先端16d1’(図6(B)参照)が溶融されてフランジ(詳細にいえば、フランジ下面)に溶着、係止されて、周縁壁の段部16dはトリムカバーの端末12c’を本体のフランジ(フランジ上面)に押圧して挟持する。つまり、係止片16d1がスリットS1、S2に挿通されてフランジ16b1に溶着、係止されることにより、蓋体16cが本体16bに被せられ組み込まれて、小物入れ16が組み立てられる。そして、蓋体16cが本体16bに被せられて組み込まれると、トリムカバーの端末12c’は、蓋体の周縁壁16c1、本体のフランジの縁部16b1’の間に挟み込まれるとともに、周縁壁の段部16d、フランジ16b1の間に挟持され、本体への蓋体の組み込みによる小物入れ16の組み立てと同時に、トリムカバーの端末が処理される。   When the locking piece 16d1 is inserted through the slit S2 of the flange of the main body, the distal end 16d1 ′ (see FIG. 6B) of the locking piece protruding from the slit S2 is melted and the flange (more specifically, the flange The lower edge is welded and locked, and the step 16d on the peripheral wall presses and holds the terminal 12c ′ of the trim cover against the flange (upper face of the flange) of the main body. That is, the locking piece 16d1 is inserted into the slits S1 and S2 and welded and locked to the flange 16b1, whereby the lid body 16c is put on the main body 16b and incorporated, and the accessory case 16 is assembled. When the lid 16c is put on the main body 16b and incorporated, the terminal 12c ′ of the trim cover is sandwiched between the peripheral wall 16c1 of the lid and the edge 16b1 ′ of the flange of the main body, and the step of the peripheral wall The end of the trim cover is processed at the same time as assembling the accessory case 16 by being sandwiched between the portion 16d and the flange 16b1 and incorporating the lid into the main body.

図3、図4では、トリムカバーの端末12c’を間に配置して蓋体16cを本体16bに被せて小物入れ16の組み立てるように図示しているが、実際には、以下のようにして上下逆にして小物入れは組み立てられる。
(1)すなわち、図3、図4とは逆に、蓋体16cは上下逆にして、つまり、蓋体の周縁壁16c1の下端から延びた一連の係止片16d1を上にして、位置決めの冶具に取り付けられ固定される。
(2)それから、表裏逆にして裏面を上にしたトリムカバー12cが、係止片16d1にそのスリットS1を挿通させながら蓋体16cに被せられる。
In FIGS. 3 and 4, the trim cover terminal 12c ′ is disposed between the cover 16c and the main body 16b so that the accessory case 16 is assembled. The accessory case is assembled upside down.
(1) That is, contrary to FIGS. 3 and 4, the lid body 16c is turned upside down, that is, with a series of locking pieces 16d1 extending from the lower end of the peripheral wall 16c1 of the lid body, Attached to the jig and fixed.
(2) Then, the trim cover 12c with the reverse side upside down is placed on the lid 16c while the slit S1 is inserted through the locking piece 16d1.

(3)次に、上下逆にしてその底部を上、フランジ16b1を下にした本体16bが、係止片16d1にそのスリットS2を挿通させながらトリムカバーの端末12c’をフランジと周縁壁の段部16dとの間に挟んで蓋体16cに被せられる。
(4)トリムカバーのスリットs1、本体のスリットS2を挿通してスリットS2から突出する係止片の一部(係止片の突出部16d1’)が、アイロンなどの溶融手段で溶融され、フランジの見掛け上の上面(実際は下面;図6(B)参照)に押し当てられて係止片16d1が溶着、係止される。そして、蓋体の周縁壁16c1の段部16d、本体のフランジ16b1(の見掛け上の上面)との間でトリムカバーの端末12c’を挟持した小物入れ16が、蓋体16cを下、本体16bを上にして上下逆に組み立てられる。
(5)位置決めの冶具から、蓋体16cを取り外し、上下逆の小物入れ16を上下反転すれば、小物入れ16が得られる。
(3) Next, the main body 16b with the bottom portion turned upside down and the flange 16b1 turned downward is inserted into the locking piece 16d1 through the slit S2, and the trim cover terminal 12c ′ is placed between the flange and the peripheral wall. The cover 16c is put between the part 16d and the cover 16c.
(4) A part of the locking piece (the locking piece protruding portion 16d1 ′) protruding from the slit S2 through the slit s1 of the trim cover and the slit S2 of the main body is melted by a melting means such as an iron, and the flange The locking piece 16d1 is welded and locked by being pressed against the apparent upper surface (actually the lower surface; see FIG. 6B). The accessory case 16 sandwiching the terminal 12c ′ of the trim cover between the step 16d of the peripheral wall 16c1 of the lid and the flange 16b1 (apparent upper surface) of the main body lowers the lid 16c and the main body 16b. Can be assembled upside down.
(5) The accessory case 16 is obtained by removing the lid 16c from the positioning jig and inverting the accessory case 16 upside down.

本発明では、本体の蓋部の周壁部16c1から垂下してトリムカバーの端末のスリットs1、本体のフランジのスリットS2に挿通された係止片16d1の一部(突出部16d1’)を溶融してフランジに溶着、係止させることによってトリムカバーの端末12cが処理されている。つまり、トリムカバー12cをシートパッドの上面に被せる工程の前工程においてトリムカバーの端末12c’を処理できる。そして、煩雑で時間を要する縫合によらないため、端末処理が迅速、容易に行える。   In the present invention, a part (projecting part 16d1 ′) of the locking piece 16d1 which is suspended from the peripheral wall part 16c1 of the lid part of the main body and is inserted into the slit s1 of the terminal of the trim cover and the slit S2 of the flange of the main body is melted. The end 12c of the trim cover is treated by welding and locking to the flange. That is, the trim cover terminal 12c 'can be processed in a step before the step of covering the upper surface of the seat pad with the trim cover 12c. And since it is not complicated and time-consuming stitching, terminal processing can be performed quickly and easily.

トリムカバーの端末を弾性変形可能なシートパッド、小物入れのフランジ間で挟持する公知の構成とは異なり、小物入れの本体16b、蓋体16cの間にトリムカバーの端末12c’を挟持して処理している。トリムカバーの端末12c’がシートパッド12pの圧縮、変形と無関係に挟持されて小物入れ16の組み立てにおいて処理されるため、トリムカバーの端末処理が、シートクッションの座面(上面)などへの小物入れ16の取り付けと分離して事前に行える。   Unlike the known configuration in which the terminal of the trim cover is sandwiched between the elastically deformable seat pad and the flange of the accessory case, the trim cover terminal 12c ′ is sandwiched between the accessory case body 16b and the lid 16c. is doing. Since the trim cover terminal 12c 'is sandwiched regardless of the compression and deformation of the seat pad 12p and processed in the assembly of the accessory case 16, the trim cover terminal processing is performed on the seat cushion seat surface (upper surface) and the like. This can be done in advance separately from the installation of the container 16.

すなわち、蓋体の係止片16d1を本体のフランジ16b1に溶着、係止して蓋体16c、本体16bを一体化して小物入れ16を組み立てれば、トリムカバーの端末12c’が自動的に処理され、トリムカバーの端末を処理した小物入れ16が得られる。そして、トリムカバーの端末12c’を処理して組み立てられた小物入れ16を、シートクッションのシートパッド12pに設けた凹所12p1(図2参照)に埋設しながらトリムカバー12cをシートパッドの上面に被せ、張設しながらシートクッションの下面でその端末をシートフレームに固定すれば、図1に示すようなシートクッションに小物入れが設けた自動車用シート10が得られ、小物入れの取付けが容易に行える。   In other words, if the lid locking piece 16d1 is welded and locked to the flange 16b1 of the main body to integrate the lid 16c and the main body 16b to assemble the accessory case 16, the terminal 12c ′ of the trim cover is automatically processed. Thus, the accessory case 16 obtained by processing the end of the trim cover is obtained. Then, the accessory case 16 assembled by processing the terminal 12c ′ of the trim cover is embedded in the recess 12p1 (see FIG. 2) provided in the seat pad 12p of the seat cushion, and the trim cover 12c is placed on the upper surface of the seat pad. If the terminal is fixed to the seat frame on the lower surface of the seat cushion while being covered and stretched, an automobile seat 10 having an accessory case provided on the seat cushion as shown in FIG. 1 is obtained, and attachment of the accessory case is easy. Yes.

小物入れのフランジ、シートパッドの間にトリムカバーの端末を挟持する公知の構成では、フランジをシートパッド方向に押し付ける押力を確保するために、小物入れの底部などをシートフレームに固定する必要がある。しかしながら、本発明では、トリムカバーの端末12c’をシートパッド12p、小物入れのフランジ16b1の間で挟持しておらず、フランジをシートパッド方向に押し付ける押力を要しないため、小物入れをシートフレームに固定する必要がない。   In the known configuration in which the end of the trim cover is sandwiched between the accessory case flange and the seat pad, it is necessary to fix the bottom of the accessory case to the seat frame in order to secure the pressing force to press the flange toward the seat pad. is there. However, in the present invention, the trim cover terminal 12c ′ is not sandwiched between the seat pad 12p and the accessory case flange 16b1, and no pressing force is required to press the flange toward the seat pad. There is no need to fix to.

トリムカバーの端末12c’を小物入れの本体のフランジ16b1、シートパッド12pの間に挟持していないとはいえ、大きな圧縮力が凹所12p1の回りでシートパッドに加わってシートパッドが圧縮、変形すれば、シートパッドを覆うトリムカバー12cが小物入れ16の回りで小物入れから離れる方向(外方)に引っ張られる。しかしながら、図2からよくわかるように、環状の縁部16b1’が小物入れの本体のフランジ上面に一体に形成され、蓋体の環状の周縁壁16c1の外面との間でトリムカバーの端末12c’を挟み込んでいる。そのため、この本体の縁部16b1’はトリムカバーの引張に抵抗して蓋体の周縁壁16c1との間での隙間の発生を防止する。   Although the terminal 12c 'of the trim cover is not sandwiched between the flange 16b1 of the accessory case main body and the seat pad 12p, a large compressive force is applied to the seat pad around the recess 12p1 to compress and deform the seat pad. Then, the trim cover 12c covering the seat pad is pulled around the accessory case 16 in the direction away from the accessory case (outward). However, as can be seen from FIG. 2, an annular edge 16b1 'is integrally formed on the upper surface of the flange of the accessory body, and the trim cover terminal 12c' is formed between the outer peripheral surface of the annular peripheral wall 16c1 of the lid. Is sandwiched. For this reason, the edge 16b1 'of the main body resists the tension of the trim cover and prevents the gap from being generated between the peripheral wall 16c1 of the lid.

また、本体の縁部16b1’が蓋体の周縁壁16c1とほぼ同一の高さまで延びて蓋体の周縁壁との間に段差がないため、たとえ、本体の縁部16b1’蓋体の周縁壁16c1との間に隙間が生じても、隙間の広がりが本体の縁部16b1’によって隠され、隙間への指の入り込みが防止される。隙間の発生を防止する本体の縁部16b1’が、隙間への指の差し込みを防止するガードとしても機能しているため、指の差し込みを防ぐ専用のガードを設ける必要がない。   Further, since the edge 16b1 ′ of the main body extends to almost the same height as the peripheral wall 16c1 of the lid and there is no step between the peripheral wall of the lid and the peripheral wall of the edge 16b1 ′ of the main body Even if a gap is formed between 16c1 and 16c1, the spread of the gap is hidden by the edge 16b1 ′ of the main body, and the entry of the finger into the gap is prevented. Since the edge 16b1 'of the main body that prevents the gap from functioning also functions as a guard that prevents the insertion of the finger into the gap, there is no need to provide a dedicated guard that prevents the insertion of the finger.

専用のガードが設けられず、小物入れがシートフレームに固定されないため、構成が簡単化されて、小物入れのコストおよび重量の削減が可能となる。
また、トリムカバー12cで覆われているため、本体の縁部16b1’が存在しても外観品質を損なうこともない。
Since a dedicated guard is not provided and the accessory case is not fixed to the seat frame, the configuration is simplified, and the cost and weight of the accessory case can be reduced.
Moreover, since it is covered with the trim cover 12c, the appearance quality is not impaired even if the edge 16b1 ′ of the main body exists.

図2、図5からわかるように、ガム、ペン、ティッシュなどの小物は、蓋体の天井面の切欠き16c2’から小物入れの本体16bに出し入れされる。そして、本体の側壁16b2が蓋体の天井面16c2の背後まで延びているため、ガムなどを本体16bに入れるとき、蓋体の天井面を誤って強く押圧しても、天井面の過剰な変形が本体の側壁で妨げられて天井面の破損が防止される。   As can be seen from FIGS. 2 and 5, small items such as gum, pen, and tissue are taken in and out of the main body 16 b of the small case through a notch 16 c 2 ′ on the ceiling surface of the lid. And since the side wall 16b2 of the main body extends to the back of the ceiling surface 16c2 of the lid, even when gum or the like is put into the main body 16b, the ceiling surface is excessively deformed even if it is strongly pressed by mistake. Is obstructed by the side wall of the main body to prevent the ceiling surface from being damaged.

上記のように、本発明によれば、小物入れの本体、蓋体が、溶着、係止によってトリムカバーの端末を挟み、挟持しながら組み立てられ、トリムカバーの端末が弾性変形可能なシートパッド、小物入れのフランジ間で挟持されず、シートパッドの圧縮、変形と無関係に挟持されて処理されているため、小物入れ、トリムカバーの端末間での隙間の発生が防止される。
また、小物入れの本体、蓋体が、溶着、係止によってトリムカバーの端末を挟み込んで挟持しながら組み立てられており、煩雑で時間を要する縫合によらない。そのため、トリムカバーの端末処理が容易に行える。
As described above, according to the present invention, the main body of the accessory case and the lid body are assembled while sandwiching and holding the terminal of the trim cover by welding and locking, and the seat pad in which the terminal of the trim cover can be elastically deformed, Since it is not clamped between the flanges of the accessory box and is processed by being clamped regardless of the compression and deformation of the seat pad, generation of a gap between the terminals of the accessory case and the trim cover is prevented.
Further, the accessory case main body and the lid are assembled while sandwiching and holding the end of the trim cover by welding and locking, and it is not complicated and time-consuming sewing. Therefore, the terminal treatment of the trim cover can be easily performed.

さらに、蓋体の係止片を本体のフランジに溶着、係止して蓋体、本体を一体化して小物入れを組み立てれば、トリムカバーの端末が自動的に処理され、縫合を要しないでトリムカバーの端末を処理した小物入れを事前に用意できる。そのため、トリムカバーの端末を処理した小物入れを、シートクッションのシートパッドに設けた凹所に埋設することにより、小物入れがシートクッションの座面に容易に取り付けられる。   Furthermore, if the lid's locking piece is welded and locked to the flange of the main body, the lid and the main body are integrated to assemble the accessory case, the trim cover terminal is automatically processed and trimmed without sewing. You can prepare an accessory case that has processed the terminal of the cover in advance. Therefore, the accessory case can be easily attached to the seat surface of the seat cushion by embedding the accessory case in which the terminal of the trim cover is processed in a recess provided in the seat pad of the seat cushion.
